most games i try on pcsx2 i can run at 60 fps easily. rogue galaxy, etc etc.

it will run at 60fps without speedhacks or anything but randomly the fps will dip down to 45/50/sound will go crazy. it makes not playing the games very fun, is this normal/is my computer too ***** for perfect 60fps always?

even 2d games like odin sphere do the same thing. 60fps then randomly fps drop down to 45/sound grossness.

im using default settings mostly, but i've tried every option/tinkered around with it for hours. even messed with the speedhacks but it still happens.

halp? :] if it helps. pcsx2 version 0.9.8 r4600 and running games from iso.

where do i get the latest SVN version? and how do i enable mTVU hack? is it under speedhack?

rogue galaxy slows down frequently
odin sphere does it too
snake eater does the same thing
kingdom hearts

pardon? do you wish to see my settings? or are you telling me to mess around with settings? im trying the latest build and so far star ocean 3 is running at constant 60+ fps with no speedhacks! i guess its different for every game?

Yes, it's very different for every game and oftentimes you get more and less demanding scenes in one title.
Odin Sphere is slow for different reasons that Rogue Galaxy for example.
I expect the MTVU hack to help a lot in RG but nearly not at all in OS.

That said, your CPU is a little slow for keeping up full speed in the popular games, so keep working with speedhacks.

hmm, weird. my friend has the same processor as me and gets nearly 60fps constant in most games. i swear, its just a setting i haven't ticked. ive been testing different games/messing with settings for around 8 hours now. i should probably give it a rest and fiddle some more tommorow. thanks for the response.

another question, should i only keep one speed hack setting at a time on? or multiple ones on at once?
